Stephanie M. Wong is a scholar of Chinese religions, especially Chinese Christianity and its relation to historic and contemporary Daoist, Buddhist, and Confucian thought and life. While she teaches a broad range of classes in Asian religions, her research focuses especially on Chinese Catholicism — both the history of the Catholic Church in China, and the theological, ethical, and praxical contours of Catholic engagement with Chinese strands of political philosophy and popular religiosity. Her book Making Catholicism Chinese: The Catholic Church in Modernizing China (Oxford U Press, Jan. 2026) traces the pro-indigenization movement in the Republican Era (pre-1949); and articles in various journals consider the theological and sociological relations of Catholicism alongside other Chinese religious communities and their habits of thought and action.
